Generally this means the traditional nuclear family of:
– Breadwinner Man
– Housewife
– 2 and a half kids (no dismemberment, just averages)

Plenty of people hate it, and yet plenty of women still consider it the ideal.
The actuality is whatever you want out of your relationship.

That is most definitely NOT the common use, but it is one use.
